Chapter 1627: Missing Spirit Cage

He casually wiped the blood from his forehead, closed his eyes and regulated his breathing for a long time. Only then did his violently heaving chest slowly calm down a little.

However, the blood flowing from the deep wound between his eyebrows could not be stopped. It kept flowing down and soon dyed half of his face red.

"Little guy, your words are quite cold and ruthless like a great demon, but what you did is not in line with your identity as a cold-blooded demon dragon at all."

At this moment, a woman's clear voice suddenly came to my ears, like a soft and cold silk thread, as soft as the cool breeze on a snowy night.

When Bailian raised his eyes, he saw a cold jade-like hand soaked in mottled sunlight, and the dark blue veins beneath the skin were clearly visible.

The cold fingertips lightly touched Bailian's forehead, and the deep wound was immediately effectively stopped from bleeding.

Thick fog rose up, and the whole world seemed to be shrouded in fog, and everything was hazy and unclear.

The spirit cage around Cangnanyi had disappeared at some point, and she was in this world, as if she was in a clear lake.

The faint black mist of dust emanating from her body was no longer thick and sticky, and seemed to have been diluted and faded into the mist.

The visual effect is very strange, just like a pool of thick ink falling into a clear pond and slowly spreading with the flowing water.

The woman was dressed in a green dress, as elegant as water, her clothes fluttering in the breeze. She had black hair and a green jade crown, making her look like a spirit of mountains and rivers, elegant and graceful. There was a coolness between her eyebrows and eyes, and a faint charm of mist all over her body, as if she was compatible with this mysterious world.

She leaned against a barren rock. A strong wind came from nowhere, making her black hair messy. A few strands fell on her cheeks, making the woman's slightly tired face look frighteningly pale.

It was precisely because her face was so pale that the signs of withering under her beautiful neck like white jade looked even more hideous and terrifying.

But at least, it stopped.

After entering this world behind the door, the withered color under her neck also became lighter.

Bailian raised his hand and rubbed the wound between his eyebrows. After confirming that he had successfully brought the queen into this inner world, he exhaled lightly and said, "The queen's withering process is very terrible, but it doesn't seem to affect your perception of the outside world."

  Cangnanyi raised his hand and gently gathered the frost dust in the air that was transformed by the mask and flowed like sand. His eyes were deep and he said calmly:

"You made a pact with countless evil demons and hid half of their souls in your pact seal. Even if they died at the hands of Qing Ao, they still retained half of their souls.

Your corpse demon body was transformed by the Nine Netherworld Fire, and has the ability to reshape a body and restore the body to life, so you plan to feed the demons with your body and rebuild the bodies of those evil demons that were damaged in the battle?"

Bailian smiled and said, "I said, I don't make choices. As a demon, greed is the norm."

Cangnanyi's beautiful eyebrows raised slightly.

This sentence... I don't know who it is referring to.

However, sacrificing one's own cultivation foundation just to rebuild the body of a soldier under his command, I don't know whether this is greed or too petty.

I have experienced life and death at a very early age, and have gone through many things in my youth, but I still cannot take the matter of life and death lightly.

No matter how brutal the battlefield is, on any battlefield, life is just a number of casualties.

But no matter what, he still achieved the minimum casualties by using a 'stupid' and 'petty' method.

Cangnanyi looked deeply at Baili An and said, “Since you are rescuing me, why do you have to act like an enemy of Kunlun Mountain?

"When the work is done, I will leave with my sleeves brushed off. After drinking a cup of wine, I will be famous and hidden. This is only applicable to the wandering knights in the world and the immortals in the mountains. It will never have any meaning to the demons. Doing so will only make the world think that you have other intentions."

Bailian smiled faintly and said, "Then in your opinion, if I lead the demon alliance and help you resist the rebels, the evildoers and foreign enemies, quell the civil strife, protect the emperor, and defend Kunlun, will the immortal world put aside their prejudices and biases against the demons, name the demons as the new immortals, remove the golden seal of the emperor, and grant them territory and freedom?"

Of course not.

I still feel that they have ulterior motives.

The demon fairy clan has been living in seclusion from the world, sealing the Corridor and Sky Abyss for millions of years, yet they have yet to completely get rid of the reputation of being a demon.

If his demon alliance, formed by all the demons in the mortal world, could show its strength at this time, it could protect Kunlun and resist the rebellion of evildoers.

It will not make the lord in the Shangqing Immortal Realm feel that the Demon Alliance is doing good deeds and has the intention to save the world.

I think most of them are just secretly speculating and being vigilant in their hearts. They wonder whether the monsters who were exiled and wandering around the world would save Kunlun at the cost of casualties. They wonder whether Kunlun Mountain is secretly colluding with the monster clan.

The demon tribes from outer space in the world become one family and shine together with the mortal world. This is definitely not the outcome that the lord in the fairy world hopes to see.

Since he has been wary of Kunlun Mountain for so many years, how could he continue to tolerate Kunlun Mountain becoming more powerful and getting help from the demon clan?

In the future, every time the Demon Alliance grows stronger, it will be like a knife hanging over your head, getting closer to your head.

Therefore, the Demon Alliance must be evil and ambitious in trying to annex Kunlun Mountain.

Even more, the Demon Alliance has to continue to maintain its mystery and greed, making it impossible for people to guess the purpose of its actions, hoping that one battle will be enough to shock the six realms.

When the Immortal Lord Zhu Zhan can no longer sit still, he will naturally need a matching force like Kunlun Mountain to defend against the enemy.

Cangnanyi stared at him for a long time and said, "After all, it's a way of taking shortcuts. You use the evil demon clan to pave the way for Kunlun Mountain. How can you achieve the long-term goal of giving up and gaining in return?" This was said tactfully, and it was not completely questioning Bailian's strategy and decision.

The method of checks and balances has existed since ancient times.

But the prerequisite is that you need to have a check and balance force that cannot be underestimated, making people helpless, just like walking on a tightrope on a cliff. Once the power is unbalanced and you are wiped out, there will be no room for maneuver.

The method of checks and balances, exposing oneself, is undoubtedly tantamount to cutting off one's own retreat.

"My move today is not entirely for Kunlun Mountain, but..."

Bailian raised his eyebrows and smiled at the queen, saying: "At least I have done my best for you. Even if there is no way to retreat in the future, I think with your extraordinary ability in Kunlun Mountain, you can leave a safe place for these evil monsters."

  Cangnanyi raised the corner of his mouth, his eyes were intriguing: "You asked me to take in these evil monsters in Kunlun Mountain? You don't even make plans for yourself?

Do you know why the dragon clan disappeared in this world? The little white dragon next to you cultivated immortality with the body of a dragon and became a spiritual beast, so the fairyland Yaochi can accommodate her.

But you practice the Way of Demon with the body of a dragon, and in the eyes of Immortal Master Zhu Zhan, you are an evil beast. After this disturbance, he will be even less willing to tolerate you. "

Baili laughed and said, "Your Highness, it sounds as if Zhu Zhan would tolerate me if I didn't make such a scene. The identity of the Corpse Demon King is already a taboo, and now it is just adding insult to injury. My position will not change at all. If I look ahead and behind and stick to the distinction between good and evil, I will only be limited by it."

Cangnanyi was silent for a moment, and the faint smile on her face faded. She raised her head slightly, and her dark eyes appeared extremely dark in the backlight. She said calmly: "It's too early to worry about others' stay or departure."

She turned her eyes and looked at Baili An quietly for a long time, then said slowly, "Do you really think that if you lead me into this holy land, I can successfully survive the catastrophe?"

Baili Anjing was silent for a long time before he asked, "Master Qingxuan has tried so hard to get the queen to join this holy sect. Is it useless?"

Even with his memories from his previous life, Bailian still knew very little about the Ten Forbidden Things of Kunlun.

However, he also knew that this holy gate could help the Empress improve her survival rate during the Jiejie period.

The Holy Gate, also translated as the Gate of Life.

That is the gate of life for saints.

Cangnanyi stared at Baili An with his clear eyes without blinking, and said, "Don't you realize that although the calamity of the world on my body is light, it has not dissipated?"

Bailian's heart sank.

I hadn't noticed anything when I spoke just now, I just felt that the black air around Cangnan Yi faded away, completely different from the thick and sticky black air that enveloped his figure in the outside world.

But now that she reminded him, Bailian realized that the black energy on her body had not actually disappeared.

Just like a drop of thick ink falling into a clear pool, it is diluted and becomes lighter by the water, but in fact it always exists.

And the world behind the gate of the sanctuary seems to be that pool of water.

Wisps of black smoke and dust were diffused in the space like extremely thin fog.

It seems that it can be broken by pulling it casually, but it is always closely connected with Cangnanyi's body, unwilling to be separated and never cut off.

Bailian's breathing became heavier. Even though he was a calm man, he couldn't help but feel extremely heavy when he saw this despairing scene.

"What the hell does this happen?"

Cangnanyi returned to his usual laziness, as if he had expected this result, and said nonchalantly: "It's nothing strange. If I can safely pass through the catastrophe by entering the door, I don't have to arrange my affairs and will so early."

Bailian's mouth twitched and he was speechless.

Whether it was Qingxuan or Qingshui, they were both as anxious as ants on a hot pan about her life and death, and they wished they could sacrifice their own lives to save hers.

She is so good, the death warrant of the King of Hell is almost sticking to her face, but she is still sitting here leisurely, with an attitude of watching a show.

The problem is that it is a bit too ungentle for you to watch a play that brings up your own life and death.

No matter what, Bailian has already sent her safely into the inner world. As for how to survive this tribulation, no matter how much he wants to, he is powerless and she can only rely on herself.

Now that the woman has woken up, her movements are no longer restricted. With her abilities, she can easily solve any desperate situation, so he doesn't need to worry about it.

As for the world outside the gate, although it has the advantage of the boundary gate, with Shu Ci in charge, there won't be much trouble.

But Qingao has lived for millions of years and has come up with many new tricks, but Bailian is still worried about her and Feiyan.

"Now that the queen has woken up, I think there is nothing in this world that can be difficult for the queen. I am not talented enough, and I know that even if I force myself to stay here, I will only hinder the queen. I will take my leave now, and I hope the queen can survive the tribulation smoothly."

After saying that, Bailian bowed and prepared to leave.

This queen with a weird temper won't play with her anymore.
